A method to control functions in a vehicle using gestures carried out in three-dimensional space. When it is determined that a first gesture carried out in three-dimensional space is detected by an image-based detection procedure, it is determined whether the first gesture is a gesture directed towards a virtual object superimposing a real environment around the vehicle. If it is determined that the first gesture has been detected, it is determined whether a second gesture carried out in three-dimensional space is detected by the image-based detection procedure. If so, it is determined whether the detected second gesture is a gesture allocated to a manipulation of the virtual object, and the virtual object is manipulated accordingly.
